Specialized Research Fellowships
In addition to Heller’s general funding for all full-time PhD students enrolling in the program, we also offer specialized research fellowships for students interested in the following policy areas.
The Schneider Institutes for Health Policy offer a doctoral training fellowship in the area of substance abuse sponsored by the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA). This federal training grant includes a 100% tuition scholarship, all University fees, the health insurance premium, as well as an annual stipend. The current annual stipend is $28,224 for the first three years of study. For a comprehensive description please visit the NIAAA fellowship page.
